Ratings and reviews

So far I am happy with this ap. It is simple to use. I doesn't require signing up for q needless acct. It doesn't ask for access to my phone. It has bold, italic and underline options. Note, would give 5 stars if it had more options: A) a folder of multiple pages, and B) spell check compatibility for the titles. I'm reducing my rating to a 3 cause it constantly deletes now and adjusts thr most recently looked at file to the top (even without any edits done). Sad!

Your most recent update has caused my offline file list to lag when scrolling. This used to be a great app, but it's been more than a year, and it still doesn't allow me to move the cursor along the text line by sliding my finger on the space bar. The act of backspacing to delete text is still super laggy. I'm tired of waiting for bug fixes that never materialize. Edited 07/17/24

Kind of a pain to be honest. The app is buggy. It jumps around as I type, shifting my line forward or back depending on how it feels. I spend more time to go back and try and fix what it has done than it takes to type what I want. Literally slows me down twice-over. Scrambles my letters, jumps behind punctuation, it also keeps toggling bold at random times. Such a nuisance. On desktop, it's laggy and my tools have disappeared at times which caused pure panic. It's so very inconsistent.
